I've bought a Vauxhall Corsa which I've found to have been repaired and resprayed. What can I do?
I'm an idiot. I bought a Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 SXI from a dealer on a personal loan. I've overpaid for it, handed my part-ex in and ended up with a car which has had all the right-hand side resprayed badly. The alloys still show damage. I've been in touch with the dealer, Consumer Direct, my MP, and the Retail Motor Federation who will be sending details of the National Conciliation Service. I'm not sure what else I can do.

Nothing much else you can do. You agreed to buy the car on the terms they offered it and it is presumably fit for purpose. Unless they made a false statement about it which you can prove and which comprises a substantial matter, you cannot just return the car and reverse the deal.
